Facebook for Small Business
It’s no secret that Facebook has become a huge part of how people interact with each other, share ideas and recommendations, and interact with the brands they like. But too many businesses aren’t seeing results from their Facebook marketing efforts because they are posting content without having a strategic plan for turning “fans” into leads and leads into brand advocates. In this class, you’ll learn:
Why Facebook is important to your business;
The difference between posting and marketing on Facebook ;
Tactics to increase engagement on your Facebook business page.
You’ll also learn best practices that you can implement immediately to supercharge your Facebook marketing. And time for questions allowing for discussion of real life Facebook success stories. Students should have a facebook business page (prior to class).Tuesday, 10/13 9:30-11:00 a.m. #934003B $60/R | $63/NR Location: PRCE Classroom, Town Hall, 33 Shattuck Street

Think Email Marketing doesn’t work anymore? Not a chance. Your customers are in their inbox every day – several times a day. With Email Marketing you’re sure to reach them, and that means more people through your door (or website), more calls, and more revenue.
During our time together you will learn:
• The small business benefits of reaching customers with the use of email marketing ;
• Options for email marketing platforms;
• The who – what – when and why of an email marketing campaign.
Not sure where to start? Perfect! This class will also review how to choose the right platform for your small biz. Already using Email marketing? Even better!
